The best restaurants in Boughton and Courtenay Swale South East

As usual, our visit to The Dove was an excellent experience. The menu had a good choice of items, with Venison at the top of the list for fantastic quality and presentation. The staff, led by Will and Sophie, were very attentive, responding well to customer requests and anticipating likes and dislikes. It was quite a busy afternoon with only two 'front of house' staff, but Sophie and her assistant provided a well-paced, relaxed ambiance with no undue delays between courses. Long may The Dove's success continue!

A little gem on a busy road my first visit today with my elderly mum and was made so welcome from an earlier phone call for directions …. Which easy to find So pleased I went excellent food and fantastic valve friendly atmosphere from start to finish I felt like I’d known Nick ( the owner ) and Jackie for years The best bubble and squeak I’ve had in years looking forward to returning soon It may be a small diner but a big personality for a professional business

This fabulous venue is once again staging live music. At the moment only occasionally but events will increase in time. Keep an eye on their website and social media. Intimate venue hosting interesting acts from far and wide.

We had live music and a bbq in the garden, and it was a great afternoon! The food was good and we sang along to the music (!) It was cold but it was an English summer.

Awesome Sunday roast. Juicy rib of beef which for £19 I thought was very well priced. Real ale also great and in very good condition. Should think we’ll be back again soon.

Steak was an absolute winner my partner said! I really enjoyed the sea bass, extremely generous! You cannot miss out on the homemade Kent Gypsy Tart! Wonderful friendly atmosphere, the team could not do enough to help you enjoy the experience. Definitely will be back when I’m in Kent again!

Nice layout lovely staff, brilliant food , highly recommend

Wonderfully cosy place, garden has cosy corners to sit and the main room has a log fire ( in the winter). All home made food, very good quality, healthy savoury options. The cakes (I’m not a cake eater) looked delicious and home made.

This is a nice quiet spot for a good pizza. The service was good and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd recommend it if you're in the area.

Amazing food..brilliant carvery with loads of choice! All cooked perfectly. Great service from.lovely staff! Will 100% return

Wonderful afternoon tea. A lovely little cafe with excellent service and food made to perfection. An absolute delight. If you get the chance to try the burnt cheesecake, it's a dream !

Went to the Wasted Kitchen Refectory for family gathering and birthday Amazing food great staff lovely view What more could you want Love it here

Lovely peaceful environment for a stop on your journey. Clean, well laid out and service with a smile. Easy for wheelchair access, too.

Lovely place and my roast with salmon was the tastiest food I've had in a long time. The sauce was to die for!

Very poor customer service. The young lady at the till ignored me once when she took my order, spoke to her manager about something else and then disappeared off to the kitchen. Came back and I had to repeat my order again. Had to clear our own table and then the manager came over when we asked where our drinks were. She said it was a 20 minute wait (for a tea and 2 coffees). Manager was very passive aggressive when we then asked for a refund as we couldn’t wait 20 minutes. Customers should be told this when they order. Will not be returning.
